The fact is it's difficult to traffic educated and empowered youth. Because human trafficking thrives on vulnerable youth and conditions of inequity, Aura Freedom in Toronto Canada made the decision to take a deep and focused dive by training a select number of youth on human trafficking related anti-oppressive topics and then employed them to go into schools, group homes, migrant-focused organizations and more to educate and empower vulnerable youth. After 40 presentations over the course of a year, the "Peer Prevention Project" educated over 2000 participants and identified and referred 24 youth survivors to services. Founder of the Peer Prevention Project, Marissa Kokkoros, talks about the power of the project, how it started, the training, and how you can be trained to bring this program to your community.
